Describe the bug
The "Transcoding temp cleanup" job ignores its triggers. Other jobs run fine, this one just says "Last ran 2 months ago" unless its manually triggered. The manual run works just fine.
To Reproduce
Expected behavior
The job should run every 15 minutes. This same issue happens when you set the job to run every 24 hours and so on, the setting is completly ignored.
Logs
No logs available, manual run throws no errors, scheduled run never runs.
Screenshots

System (please complete the following information):
Thanks for having a look at this issue ;)

I'm experiencing this issue as well, but it appears to be a purely visual bug. I have my task set to run at midnight every day and while the GUI continues to say that the last time it ran was several days ago, the
transcoding-tempfolder is actually being cleaned up at midnight every day.@Numline1 commented on GitHub (Dec 9, 2019):
I've just checked and you might be right @whalehub
I've ran out of 50GB of storage assigned to my JF VM several times, but I guess I've been binging too many tv sho... err, I mean, Linux ISO shows.

I have confirmed that scheduling this does not work. Will need to investigate.

@anthonylavado I've just checked the transcoding-temp folder and it seems my old files were actually deleted, despite the job saying it hasn't been executed in several weeks. It might just be a visual bug.

There’s a few things to note:
It could just be that your system’s in good shape :-)
@Numline1 commented on GitHub (Dec 27, 2019):
Oh okay, oops, didn't know about that first part. I'll try to fail some transcodings just to double check, but I'm sure you're probably right :)

I'm having this issue. The scheduled task does not run on schedule. It does run on application startup, however.
@angelfor3v3r commented on GitHub (Sep 22, 2020):
Same here. The task never runs, but on app restart it's fine. As a temporary solution I made my Jellyfin restart every 2 days. I also run Jellyfin's transcoding directory on a ramdisk so it's really bad when files linger for 4-5+ days.
